By default, ProBackup connects to your Airtable account via OAuth. If you prefer, you can also set up your backup using a personal access token instead.
Step 1: Create a personal access token
Go to the Airtable developer hub.
Click Create token.
Enter a name for your token (e.g. "ProBackup").
Click + Add a scope and select the required scopes. Here is the full list of scopes required for ProBackup:
Click + Add a base or + Add all resources to set the access level for your token. You can grant access to:
A single base
Multiple bases across different workspaces
All current and future bases in a workspace you own
Click Create token and copy the token value.
Note: Store your token securely. Airtable will only show it once.
Step 2: Share the token with ProBackup
Send the token to [email protected] via a secure link. We recommend using a service like onetimesecret.com to share it safely. Our team will configure the connection for you.
